So, Ubuntu 8.04 LTS will have not just 1 but multiple point releases like the Fedora respins which include the latest updates and hardware support.
See this blog post by Mark Shuttleworth himself: Mark Shuttleworth Blog Archive The Art of Release |
We also committed, for the first time, to a regular set of point releases for 8.04 LTS. These will start three months after the LTS, and be repeated every six months until the next LTS is out. These point releases will include support for new hardware as well as rolling up all the updates published in that series to date. So a fresh install of a point release will work on newer hardware and will also not require a big download of additional updates.
